"Zizhou, please come in quickly. I rarely go back home here. You think it's okay," Li Ziguo closed the door, smiled, and walked to the villa with Chen Zizhou.
Chen Zizhou saw all kinds of flowers and plants growing around the villa, and it was all colorful, and he knew that there was a mistress. He smiled and said: "Secretary Li's house is really secretive, but it is quite lively, so it is really a good place."
"It's really good. I like it here too. I have nothing to do and I occasionally come here for a quiet day." Speaking of this, Li Ziguo sighed and said, "If there is a chance, I hope to stay here after I retire."
Take care of the flowers and plants quietly."
Chen Zizhou smiled, said nothing, and walked into the living room. The decoration inside was not as luxurious as expected, just ordinary, but it showed an elegant style.
The table was filled with all kinds of side dishes, and Li Ziguo sat across from Chen Zizhou: "We don't have any big fish or meat, just some stir-fried dishes. I don't think we need Moutai Wuliangye or anything like that. Let's just drink some authentic local food."
How about Baogu shochu, Zizhou?"
"Okay, Bao Gu Shao is strong and tastes good," Chen Zizhou said with a smile. It doesn't matter what kind of wine he drinks, he can resolve it while drinking, but why doesn't the hostess come out?
Just as he was thinking about it, the hostess came out of the kitchen with a large bowl of pea and tofu soup.
Looking at the slender figure, the graceful steps, and the elegant temperament of the white dress, Chen Zizhou was stunned, his eyes widened, and his mouth was open for a long time, unable to recover.
I have never been so surprised by a woman.
However, what surprised Chen Zizhou was not the beauty of this woman, but that this woman was actually Li Tong!
"Yes, it's you!" Chen Zizhou managed to say. He never expected that the beautiful head nurse who sacrificed her life for himself would be the hostess here. Chen Zizhou scolded Li Ziguo thousands of times in his heart. Damn it, grandma, she can't even be so innocent.
All good girls were ruined by him.
Li Tong immediately turned red to the base of his ears, pursed his bright red mouth, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes so shyly that he did not dare to look at Chen Zizhou, as if he had done something wrong.
Li Ziguo laughed and said: "Zizhou, you all know each other, but you definitely don't know that Li Tong is my daughter, and this is her home. When I came over to see her tonight, I thought of you and asked you to come and join us.
Sit down."
"Your daughter?" Chen Zizhou smiled bitterly. It was actually a father-daughter relationship. Damn it, he slapped himself on the head. Who was he? He actually imagined that Li Tong had that kind of relationship. It seemed that he was poisoned by secular thoughts.
Very deep.
"Yes, my daughter," Li Ziguo replied, pointing to the seat, "Tong'er, sit down."
Li Tong sat down next to Chen Zizhou, then smiled generously at Chen Zizhou, and said in a sweet voice: "Mayor Chen, no one knows about my relationship with my father, so I didn't tell you, I'm sorry."
No wonder no county leader went to visit Li Tong after such a big thing happened in the hospital. So it turned out that Chen Zizhou was even more shocked. How could he hide this relationship? Why would he tell himself now?
"It's okay, Dr. Li is too polite. This is your family matter," Chen Zizhou really didn't know what to say.
"Let Zizhou laugh. Tong'er is the child of me and a female educated youth." Li Ziguo's expression was a little melancholy. "Who knew that she had a bad life. She died of illness at that time. Later she had my son, Tong'er.
I never said it out loud."
Perhaps recalling his mother, Li Tong also looked melancholy for a moment, then smiled and said: "Dad being in politics has many difficulties. I think this makes it more freeing and relaxed."
Chen Zizhou couldn't help but glance at Li Tong. This woman was very understanding and considerate.
"I didn't expect that my life-savior turned out to be Secretary Li's daughter. I respect you! First, I want to thank Secretary Li for caring about my work, and second, I want to thank Dr. Li for saving my life." Chen Zizhou drank a glass of rice and cooked it with rice.
A burning sensation rushed into my stomach, what a powerful drink.
Li Ziguo laughed and said, "Zizhou calls you Dr. Li. It's too strange. Since you are destined to our Tong'er, you might as well call me Xiaotong. It will look more friendly."
Li Tong's face turned red again when she heard this. She didn't drink, so she took a sip of tea.
What does this mean? What does fate mean? Chen Zizhou was a little confused. Looking at Li Ziguo's smile, he was shocked. Could it be that Li Tong fell in love with him? He, the father, just came here as a matchmaker.
?
If that was really the case, that would be so embarrassing! Especially when looking at Li Tong's blushing face, Chen Zizhou felt that he had guessed it right.
"Secretary Li, isn't this good? I think it's better to call Dr. Li," Chen Zizhou was a little wary because he didn't understand Li Ziguo's thoughts.
Li Ziguo laughed: "It's a new era now. You are all young people. Why are you so rigid? My Tong'er admires you very much. I have long wanted to invite you to my house. Zizhou, you
Just don’t be so outspoken.”
Li Tong also smiled shyly at this time: "Everything is just a title. Mayor Chen, just call me Xiaotong. Dr. Li feels quite awkward."
"Okay, then I'll call you Xiaotong from now on. Secretary Li, come on, let's have another drink." Since he couldn't refuse, Chen Zizhou simply went for it. After a few glasses of wine, his body became even hotter.
Li Ziguo first brought him to such a secret residence, and then told him about the secret father-daughter relationship between him and Li Tong, and then he had the intention of bringing his daughter together with him. These several actions in succession seemed to be a sign of great effort.
Wanting to show his sincerity in reconciling with him, but whether there was any other conspiracy behind it, Chen Zizhou thought that he would just follow them tonight and see what the father and daughter meant when they sang.
After drinking a few more drinks, they all talked about the little things he had with Li Tong's mother in the past. Li Ziguo seemed to be immersed in memories, showing a deep sense of loss, and he really looked like a good husband.
"Alas," after talking about the educated youth, Li Ziguo sighed and said, "Zizhou, life is complicated and changeable. No one can imagine where I will end up next. To outsiders, I have now won the position of county party committee secretary.
It may look glamorous, but how many people know how bitter it is behind it.”
It is true that every time you reach a higher level in your official career, you sometimes have to pay a heavy price. Chen Zizhou thought that Li Ziguo was talking about the difficulties in officialdom, so he raised his glass and said: "Secretary Li, there is a rainbow after the rain. You are now
It can be considered a success, I respect you!"
"I feel happy to be able to talk to you about these things from my heart. There are no outsiders tonight, so why don't we get drunk and do it!" Li Ziguo saw that Chen Zizhou only drank half a mouthful every time, so he urged Chen Zizhou to do it.
.
"Dad, you'd better drink less," suddenly, Li Tong, who had not interrupted until now, glanced at Li Ziguo uneasily and said weakly.
Li Ziguo glanced at Li Tong quickly and immediately said with a smile: "It's okay, I had a great chat with Zizhou tonight. It doesn't hurt to drink more. Can I curse you?"
Li Tong sighed slightly helplessly, glanced at Chen Zizhou secretly, seemed worried, and quickly lowered his head to eat.
"Okay, Secretary Li said well, I will stay with you until you get drunk tonight," Chen Zizhou naturally noticed the expressions of the two of them and wondered if there was something wrong with the wine, but he watched Li Ziguo drink heavily.
Go down and think that you have the magical skill of holding flowers to relieve hangover, so you don’t have to worry at all.
Chen Zizhou calmly decided to play with Li Ziguo to the end, but he did not see that Li Ziguo had secretly taken two antidotes before drinking.
"Zizhou is so refreshing," Li Ziguo praised, and then continued the topic: "The hardship behind the scenery is one thing, but the injustice and helplessness behind it is another thing. Look at me, here
Everyone in Youzhou County thinks that I am the boss, that I am the protector of Yao Yuanguang’s collusion with the black and white factions, and the people are scolding me. I know all this, but who knows that this is not actually the case behind the scenes?"
Chen Zizhou was a little stunned. Did Li Ziguo really have a conflict with Yao Yuanguang? It was difficult to answer the conversation, so he toasted to Li Ziguo frequently and listened to him continue.
"It's good that I am Yao Yuanguang's brother-in-law, but it is precisely because of this kind of relationship that I am in a difficult situation today. Zizhou, to be honest, do you think that Yao Yuanguang is domineering and corrupt?
Don’t know? Do you think I don’t know about him letting his son collude with the Seven Wolves Gang? I know everything!”
After saying this, Li Ziguo began to look excited.
"But I know what I can do? I know clearly that he knows the law and breaks the law and does all kinds of evil things, but I can only turn a blind eye and even have to help him cover up sometimes. Alas, now let's talk
All this is too late."
Li Ziguo looked very sad, drank a drink with Chen Zizhou and said: "Zizhou, maybe you don't believe what I said, but I tell you, the reason why I was led by Yao Yuanguang is because of my wife
With son, wife accompanying son
How can I have so much money when I study in the UK? But Yao Yuanguang not only provided huge expenses, but also bought a villa and a luxury car in the UK for his mother and son, and remitted money on time every month. You said, I just want to fight against crime.
, what can I do!"
Ah, Chen Zizhou was extremely shocked. It turned out to be like this. Thinking about what Li Ziguo said, this situation is really common in China's officialdom. Many officials who were originally upright were on the road of no return because their family members accepted bribes.
.
Chen Zizhou looked at Li Tong with disbelief. Li Tong seemed to nod with understanding. Chen Zizhou believed it and had no choice but to say: "Drink!"
After drinking this glass of wine, his body, which was gradually getting hotter, became even hotter. Suddenly, Chen Zizhou felt a fire burning from his abdominal cavity.
